Deadwood, OR (PRWEB) May 1, 2008 -- From the private lives of Hollywood moms to the public service of military wives...from those who love nature to those who've loved and divorced, Wyatt-MacKenzie's Spring books have something for every mom in your life.
LAUGHS AND GAFFES FROM HOLLYWOOD MOMS
Juliet Johnson grew up on the back lot of Universal Studios where her dad created "The Bionic Woman." In her first book, "Somebody's Always Hungry," Julie's comforting stories make it okay for moms not to be perfect all the time. Julie writes, "I grew up thinking a woman had to be beautiful and be able to run really fast in slow motion while working for the government. Finding out how to be a regular mom without superpowers has been enlightening."
--"...a lighthearted but gutsy meditation on time, morality and surrender." -- Julia Gibson, filmmaker
What is it like to leave a life filled with actors, agents, producers and screenwriters to be a mom? In "D-Girl Turns Mom: Leaving Hollywood Behind For the Best Job Ever" Donna Weiser shares the transition from life as a D-girl (development girl) - assistant NBC producer, and later a network executive of FOX - to full-time mother of two boys.
--"Donna humorously relates universal feelings of frustration and inadequacy, and absolute joy!"--Mary Kusnier, Nederlander Concerts
MAKE EVERY DAY EARTH DAY!
Mark Stevens, Wyatt-MacKenzie's first dad author, traveled from his home in Germany to the United States to host Earth Day celebrations and booksignings at Zoos from coast to coast this month. Mark signed copies of his new book "Luisa's Nature" at The Phoenix Zoo, The Sacramento Zoo, Zoo Atlanta, and Staten Island Zoo, while sharing his insight with parents on how to use nature to nurture children.
--"I recommend every parent take this unique journey into a new awareness of understanding your child's growth, deepening your bond with your child, and learning how to raise strong, happy kids."--Armin Brott, a.k.a. Mr. Dad
MILITARY WIVES AND THEIR WONDERFUL LIVES
Marna Krajeski, past Army helicopter pilot and current Army wife, releases two books during Military Appreciation Month - the second edition of "Household Baggage: The Moving Lives of Military Wives" and her brand new anthology "Household Baggage Handlers." This new collection is full of frank, often funny, always friendly, and forever true accounts about military family life.
--"Marna has captured our world."--Kathie J. Hightower author of "Help! I'm a Military Spouse-I Get a Life Too!"
MORE POWERFUL THAN A PRE-NUP, THESE DIVORCE RITUALS HEAL HEARTS
Monza Naff returns to Wyatt-MacKenzie for her third book, 10 years after her first award-winning poetry collection "Healing the Womanheart." Based on the author's 25 years experience, "Must We Say We Did Not Love?" is a brilliant analysis of the spiritual and emotional value of ritual after divorce. This book offers a path to deeper peace and resolution through a 4-element process, flexible enough to fit a variety of feelings and values, children's needs, and goals for the future.
--"I perceive the practice of closure rituals to be the last crucial step in the psychological healing process. Dr. Naff is truly a gifted and brilliant expert."--Dr. Gisela Bermann, clinical psychologist

Why not reading real books ?
Television; can we live without it? Yes. The Internet; can we live without that? May be. Books; can we live without books? Definitely not! At least for me, that is! For as long as I remember (and that goes way back), I have been reading, reading, and reading. I could not possible even survive without books Really, when you get a fresh copy of printed book in your hand, savoring the rich smell that I enjoy the same way people like coffee, it's like seventh heaven. Today, most classic books are printed online for people to read! This is ridiculous! Compared to actually taking a book in your hands and turning its pages, seeing the beautiful hard cover and enjoying reading preface, an online book is like a slow moving snail. Then what were book...

Best Tax Law Books For Effective Study
Tax law books comprise only a small portion of the material necessary to educate the individual in tax law. We will discuss what is available for the embryonic tax attorney currently in the form of text books and other periodicals. Remember, like many disciplines, the law is an ongoing study of case and textbook law because it is constantly changing. More so than other disciplines because law changes very quickly because it is thoroughly based on the building blocks of law; the six sisters named Who, What, Where, Why, How and When. Tax law is similarly founded on these fine ladies. Law books either as compendiums of case law or indices of the founding principles will find that they address the following questions; to whom does the law perta...

Lucrative Market In Selling Used Books
Buying used books was not always in fashion. On the contrary it was not considered acceptable and was looked down upon. College students and book-lovers made clandestine trips to stores that sold second hand books. Not only did their purchase of the large number of books that they wanted come cheap, the bookstores also gave them the time and space that they required to browse through various books. These trips promised an unstrained period of time with coffee, background music, a soothing flavor of the age gone by and years of paper.
E-books: Fountain Of Wealth And Information
The Internet offers a wealth of information. However, for people who are looking for specific information it can be a double-edge sword.

Although there are a lot of search engines that could aid you in your search, browsing through the pages upon pages of results still eats too much time. Not to mention quite -- tedious. So what do you do? You get yourself an e-book.
Leatherneck Publishing's Iraq and Vietnam Conflict Books Honored by the San Diego Library
"Street Fight in Iraq" is one of the most compelling chronicles of the Iraqi conflict and is a best seller in Marine Corps Association bookstores. The language is harsh, the writing brutally honest and the message clear. It's down and dirty and Marines love this book. "An Angel Rode My Wing" has all the elements of any great action novel -- from being shot down over North Vietnam and miraculously surviving, similar to a James Bond adventure, to mysterious and mystical occurrences in life.
